Someone explain why this is a problem... If both parties use modern wireless technology, can't they just co-exist? Users will be free to connect to the free access point or buy a login for the Starbucks point. And they shouldn't render each other unusable no matter how close they are.
Isn't AOL going to get a bit riled over this? Surely a patent on bots designed to connect to their network could be at least challenged as infringing on their IP. And AOL is not a good enemy for an unpopular start-up to have.
A very good deal faster than the native render platform
However, as Tom Duff asked in a rebuttal, is it really 800,000 times faster? And can the PC it's in feed it the 500MB of data per frame it would need to achieve that performance?
One more advantage of this site is that it will allow you to read the EULA of a piece of software you are considering without having to download, buy, or un-shrinkwrap it.
The most important words in the article (well maybe they weren't actually there, but I paraphrase): More data needed. There is still a huge margin of error in the calculation of the asteroid's orbit. It just might hit Earth at this point.
The Time "expose" was NOT Apple-sanctioned. They jumped the gun, plain and simple, and Steve was just as pissed at Time as he was at ATI the year before. Of course Apple has far more influence over one of their hardware providers than a major magazine, so the matter was dropped.
The original Mac port of Duke Nukem 3D could render a view looking backwards on a second monitor (this was also back when multiple monitors were far more common on macs than PCs).
...is a personal cell-phone anesthetizer. So I can reach into my pocket and push a button, and every cell phone within 10 meters stops working for 30 seconds (or at least long enough to drop the current call). It doesn't completely solve the problem but it would be very, very satisfying:P

The opinion of anyone who reminisces about the durability and speed of floppy disks is not worth very much.

This might not be a bad thing... If every market in the world is buying only R1 DVD players and disks, region coding has already been defeated.
Do the editors actually believe these graphs have any significance or even basis in reality?
...and it takes double the clock speed on the PC to equal the speed of Photoshop on a Mac. Your point?
I was just going to write "There have been no gameplay advances from ID in years".
The unmodified Xbox has Halo and many more dollars and hours. Any questions yet?
He does have a point. What are you going to record on that shiny new PVR when no one is broadcasting any more?
An unmodified Xbox has Halo. Any questions?
Oh no, not again...

Or a DOS attack.
And you wonder why Linux is not seen as user-friendly...
Lucas should have named the movie "Attack of the Clone Room" just so he can totally confuse people who like Star Wars, Halo, and acronyms.
Why not just randomly alternate the spin direction of all manufactured flywheels? It can't be that hard.

No, because anyone who would have such a thing implanted has not gotten any, ever.
Maybe so, but how many people can stand on Zanzibar? :)

Can you plug your coaxial cable line or whatever the hell DSL runs on straight into your computer? Same with the Xbox.
